Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2981152A1] A relay station relays communications between a plurality of home base stations providing respective home cells and a switching station via communication interfaces. The relay station is configured to set up a switching station side communication interface for each base station group. The switching station side communication interface is a part of a communication interface used by each home base station belonging to the base station group to communicate with the switching station, where the part is between the relay station and the switching station. The base station group includes the home base stations identified by home base station identifiers, each of which has a first data length and is used to identify a home base station, having a common upper segment. The upper segment has a second data length shorter than the first data length and being located sequentially from an uppermost position. The second data length is the same as a data length of a macro base station identifier identifying a macro base station providing a macro cell larger than a home cell.
